Hi all
my office has recently been scanning unsigned path reports in to pt charts, with a separate chart note stating that it is benign. They do not mention the date of the path reviewed, is this ok? Is this proper documentation?
and if insurance requests surgical notes, do i send the unsigned path report to prove tissue was removed or do i send the chart note relative to the path along with the unsigned op note

thank you
Barbara
